Nucleic acid testing is currently referred to as Neocoronavirus Nucleic Acid Testing. Nucleic acid testing of patients with colds caused by other viruses will not affect the results of the test. Neocoronavirus nucleic acid testing is specific for Neocoronavirus RNA only, and the pathogens that cause colds do not induce Neocoronavirus, so it will not adversely affect the nucleic acid test. Most colds are caused by viral infections, such as rhinoviruses, cytomegaloviruses, and parainfluenza viruses, which may induce cold symptoms. Regardless of which virus causes the cold, as long as it is not the virus that needs to be tested for, it will not cause the results of that test to be affected. In addition, colds are a relatively common disease, and frequent colds may lower the patient’s immunity, so you need to take precautions and pay attention to proper exercise. If you feel unwell, please consult the hospital in time to avoid delaying your condition. If you need a nucleic acid test, you should go to the hospital or a designated institution for testing in a timely manner, during which you should wear a good mask and do a good job of protection in order to avoid adverse consequences.
